apgmera stuck in rule generation loop

Post by Saka » December 1st, 2016, 4:05 am

Apgmera is stuck in a rule generation loop, I entered

Code: Select all

b3s2-i34q
and it looped on

Code: Select all

apgmera v3.15: Rule b3s2 does not match desired rule b3s2-i34q.
Skipping updates; use --update to update apgmera automatically.
Configuring rule b3s2; symmetry D2_+2
Valid rulestring: b3s2
Valid symmetry: D2_+2
Rule integer:     2056
Rule circuit:     [-022-140]
Rule integer:     2056
Rule circuit:     [-022-140]
Rule integer:     2056
Rule circuit:     [-022-140]
Success!

Don't try running apgmera with non-totalistic rules (which it doesn't support)? The first line of the response gives you a pretty good indication that it can't interpret the rulestring you provided correctly.
The 5S project (Smallest Spaceships Supporting Specific Speeds) is now maintained by AforAmpere. The latest collection is hosted on GitHub and contains well over 1,000,000 spaceships.

Semi-active here - recovering from a severe case of LWTDS.

Wait... but I... Maybe it was just a dream...
